thread awakened due to a time out, then cv_waiters was not decremented.
If INT_MAX threads timed out on a cv without an intervening cv_broadcast,
then cv_waiters could overflow. To fix this, have each sleeping thread
decrement cv_waiters when it resumes.
Note that previously cv_waiters was protected by the sleepq chain lock.
However, that lock is not held when threads resume from sleep. In
addition, the interlock is also not always reacquired after resuming
(cv_wait_unlock), nor is it always held by callers of cv_signal() or
cv_broadcast(). Instead, use atomic ops to update cv_waiters. Since
the sleepq chain lock is still held on every increment, it should
still be safe to compare cv_waiters against zero while holding the
lock in the wakeup routines as the only way the race should be lost
would result in extra calls to sleepq_signal() or sleepq_broadcast().

suspended thread itself, on the return path from
thread_suspend_check(). A consequence is that return from
thread_single_end(SINGLE_BOUNDARY) may leave p_boundary_count
non-zero, it might be even equal to the threads count.
Now, assume that we have two threads in the process, both calling
execve(2). Suppose that the first thread won the race to be the
suspension thread, and that afterward its exec failed for any reason.
After the first thread did thread_single_end(SINGLE_BOUNDARY), second
thread becomes the process suspension thread and checks
p_boundary_count. The non-zero value of the count allows the
suspension loop to finish without actually suspending some threads.
In other words, we enter exec code with some threads not suspended.
Fix this by decrementing p_boundary_count in the
thread_single_end()->thread_unsuspend_one() during marking the thread
as runnable. This way, a return from thread_single_end() guarantees
that the counter is cleared. We do not care whether the unsuspended
thread has a chance to run.
Add some asserts to ensure the state of the process when single
boundary suspension is lifted. Also make thread_unuspend_one()
static.

kmem arena is significantly smaller then the total available physical
memory, which means that there are loads where kmem arena space could
be exhausted, while there is a lot of pages available still. The
woken up pagedaemon sees vm_pages_needed != 0, verifies the condition
vm_paging_needed() which is false, clears the pass and returns back to
sleep, not calling neither uma_reclaim() nor lowmem handler.
To handle low kmem arena conditions, create additional pagedaemon
thread which calls uma_reclaim() directly. The thread sleeps on the

interface without breaking ABI or API compatibility with existing drivers.
The existing data structures used to communicate between the kernel and
driver portions of PPS processing contain no spare/padding fields and no
flags field or other straightforward mechanism for communicating changes
in the structures or behaviors of the code. This makes it difficult to
MFC new features added to the PPS facility. ABI compatibility is
important; out-of-tree drivers in module form are known to exist. (Note
that the existing api_version field in the pps_params structure must
contain the value mandated by RFC 2783 and any RFCs that come along after.)
These changes introduce a pair of abi-version fields which are filled in
by the driver and the kernel respectively to indicate the interface
version. The driver sets its version field before calling the new
pps_init_abi() function. That lets the kernel know how much of the
pps_state structure is understood by the driver and it can avoid using
newer fields at the end of the structure that it knows about if the driver
is a lower version. The kernel fills in its version field during the init
call, letting the driver know what features and data the kernel supports.
To implement the new version information in a way that is backwards
compatible with code from before these changes, the high bit of the
lightly-used 'kcmode' field is repurposed as a flag bit that indicates the
driver is aware of the abi versioning scheme. Basically if this bit is
clear that indicates a "version 0" driver and if it is set the driver_abi
field indicates the version.
These changes also move the recently-added 'mtx' field of pps_state from
the middle to the end of the structure, and make the kernel code that uses
this field conditional on the driver being abi version 1 or higher. It
changes the only driver currently supplying the mtx field, usb_serial, to
use pps_init_abi().

Those functions are problematic, because there is no way to report
memory allocation problems without complicating the API, so we can
either abort or potentially return invalid results. None of which is
acceptable.
In most cases the caller knows the size of the name, so he can allocate
buffer on the stack and use snprintf(3) to prepare the name.
After some discussion the conclusion is to removed those functions,
which also simplifies the API.
